EN: …always wear leopard! I fell in love with this skirt a while ago, after seeing it on a blog for sale, and I bought it instantly! It’s a vintage Escada number that looks like a wrap skirt and it’s made from a delicious animal and gems print silk. Perfect for summer and definitely worth the money!
I’m thinking of buying a few crop tops to wear it with, maybe a bralet or some lace bandeaus…Hmm, I shall experiment:)

Hope you’re having a fabulous weekend!


RO: Acum cateva luni am cumparat fusta asta online, de pe un blog ce vinde haine vintage. M-am indragostit de ea imediat ce am vazut-o si n-am rezistat sa n-o adaug colectiei mele! Nu stiu daca v-am mai spus, dar recomand cu caldura sa urmariti siteuri si bloguri de genul acesta, mai ales impatimitelor de vintage cu mai putin noroc (sau timp) de scotoceala in sh urile locale. Mi s-a intamplat des sa gasesc lucruri fabuloase online, la preturi rezonabile tinand cont de valoarea piesei in sine…
In orice caz, asta este o fusta Escada, croita pe model “parte peste parte”, dintr-un delicios material de matase imprimata cu pete de leopard si bijuterii. Super pentru vara si categoric o investitie buna!
Ma bate gandul sa-mi cumpar cateva topuri scurte pe care sa i le alatur, poate ceva ca o bustiera sau niste “bandaje” de dantela (draci, nu stiu sa traduc „bandeau”-la d’astea ma refer). Sa vedem, am multe experimente in cap.

Sper ca aveti un weekend fabulos!

EN: About a week or so ago, me and my friend went shopping. It was a glorious day as I found the most amazing blue 50’s inspired dress at H&M! Those of you who follow me on Facebook know that I was obsessed with it even before it hit the stores so you can only imagine how my knees wobbled as I saw It beautifully sitting on a hanger. Did I buy it? Without blinking an eye. In fact, I think that’s why I forgot to post these photos. I was too busy staring at my dress-which means it will take another half of year till I wear it. Told ya i have a problem with (new) things I like just a little bit too much for my own good. Habba habba
I also got a pretty necklace from H&M and some nude pumps from Zara.

RO: Acum vreo saptamana (bine posibil doua trei, da’ lasa asa), am fost cu o prietena in AFI prin magazine. A fost o zi splendida. Nu nu, nu pentru ca era frumos afara sau, ce sa vezi, ma simteam bine in compania tovarasei schingiuite, nu; ci pentru ca am gasit la H&M cea mai minunata rochie albastra in stilul anilor 50! Cele care ma urmariti pe Facebook stiti probabil ca mi-o doream si am postat-o acolo inca de dinainte sa intre in magazine, cand abia aparuse pe siteul lor. Chiar dadusem sfoara in tara sa fiu anuntata in caz ca o vede careva. Pentru o perioada nimic…Iar apoi, in ziua in care am facut pozele astea, o vad. Mandra, lunga, albastra, sifonata, ma privea gales de pe umeras. Bineinteles ca am luat-o fara sa clipesc. Sau sa gandesc (a trebuit s-o modific ulterior dar acum vine minunat).
Defapt, cred ca din cauza ei am si uitat sa postez pozele astea. Am fost prea ocupata sa ma holbez pervers la ea. Habba habba.
V-am spus eu ca am o problema cu lucrurile (noi) care-mi plac putin cam prea mult. Sper sa n-ajung la menopauza pana apuc sa o port.
Am mai luat in ziua aia un colier frumos tot de la H&M si o pereche de pantofi nude de la Zara.

EN: Last night I’ve come to realize that procrastination is one of my favourite things to do. It’s like I KNOW how important is what I have to do and I KNOW how much panic I feel when I realize I’m running out of time but I still find the most ridiculous excuses for not doing what I have to do. And I’ll always end up wondering why on earth couldn’t I just get to it! I suppose I’m more of a masochist with self inflicted pain or something.
Point is I’m losing sleep every night trying to get things done on time and I’m pretty much a zombie when I get out of bed in the morning. Hence the creepy face. And the non sense talk.
Anyway, what I really need right now is getting my hands around a big mug of steaming coffee and breathe in the magic steam that keeps me awake. That and Anna Dello Russo’s wardrobe. Ah, sweet dreams…

Have a beautiful day!

RO: Revelatie. Mi-am dat seama azi noapte ca imi place mult de tot sa aman lucruri. Cu cat sunt mai stringente, cu cat trebuie rezolvate mai repede, cu atat le aman mai mult. Gasesc cele mai penibile scuze posibile, le aman pana in ultima clipa iar cand constientizez ca n-am timp nici sa ma intorc la stanga, ma dau de ceasul mortii si incep sa ma crizez. Cam asta mi se intampla si acum. Probabil asa se manifesta latura mea masochista sau ceva.
Ideea e ca am inceput sa pierd noptile si m-am dereglat complet cu somnul de cand m-am apucat de proiecte si alte alea necesare perioadei asteia. De unde si fataul de zombie din pozele astea. Si non sensul pe care il scriu aici.
Si ca sa continui in aceiasi nota lipsita de noima sau utilitate, scopul meu in viata la momentul asta este sa cuprind cu ambele maini o cana mare de cafea aburinda si s-o las sa-mi ameteasca simturile adormite. Ar mai fi si dulap(urile) Annei Dello Russo pe langa asta, dar ma multumesc si cu halba de cafea daca nu se poate. Pfoai, ce mi-e somn…

Sa aveti o zi frumoasa!

They say diamonds are a girls best friend

Well, i beg to differ.

It’s pretty much obvious that I have a not-so-secret obsession with shoes-Thrill of the HEEL anyone? Rings a bell? Though some may call it an unhealthy addiction (as in “not-enough-money-for-lunch” unhealthy, ahem) or just a proof of how frivolous and superficial and self centred I am, I feel no shame. In fact, I’m quite proud of my guilty pleasure that calls me from store windows and webpages. And yes, I have to answer every single time! It would be rude not to.
Last night, I took a well deserved pause from a project I’m working on and relaxed myself by surfing the internet in search of some new shoes to obsess about. Here’s what got me hooked…
kurt
First of all, these gorgeous sandals by Kurt Geiger. They make me think about sweets, delicious ice cream, sugary sherbet, pretty Easter eggs and delicate spring flowers that embody innocence. And what’s not to love about a pair of fun, girly sandals that make me think about food? I’d put these on a plate with some strawberries and vanilla sauce and eat them if I could. Yummy.
With a curved heel, soft padded straps in the most delicious shade of wistful lavender and a silver sole, these shoes have all the quirky qualities I’ve come to love this season.

mcqueen
Ahhhhh, mister McQueen. Not sure which ones I like the most, they both give me butterflies in my tummy. What’s certain is that I’m head over heels for these encrusted skull nude peep toes! Both sophisticated and sexy, these gothic glamour exuding stunners are the perfect choice to take you from the office to a dinner date with ease. I’d pair them with a pencil skirt and a peplum top or a knee length 40’s style dress for a night out.
mcqueen2
Again an Alexander McQueen design, these bad boys are all kinds of O.M.G.
carvela
And now ladies and ladies, la pièce de résistance, the one shoe I’d buy without a second thought…the Carvelapatent turquoise Assemble shoe!
Now this is certainly the stuff that dreams are made of in my world. They remind me so much of Mad Men and the feminine, ladylike collection Mark Jacobs did in 2010 with circle skirts and décolletage-revealing necklines. I can definitely imagine Betty Draper wearing them!
Featuring a pretty bow embellishment and a slim stiletto heel, these heels would look amazing teamed up with a full knee-length skirt and a fitted blouse for an undeniably chic daytime outfit.

EN: If you remember, a while ago I told you about my collaboration with Oasap, a global online store dedicated to high-street fashion by offering various kinds of women’s clothes and accessories. Well, today I’m showing you part two of our collaboration as I recently received Linkthese floral wedges from them and I can say that I’m simply delighted! They look so much like the “Wisteria” chiffon tie wedges Topshop had a while ago. I loved those shoes and I always wanted a pair but unfortunately they ran out of stock just before my order was placed. Twice! Anyway, I kept hoping to find something similar and I was super happy when I saw these babies at Oasap. The floral print and ivory chiffon combination mixed with the chunky platform heels and oh so soft color left me in awe. They’re even more brilliant in person. And super comfortable.
Worn here with a River Island skirt, a Zara top, a vintage Escada belt, vintage earrings and a no name necklace.

RO: Daca va aduceti aminte, acum vreo 2-3 luni va spuneam despre colaborarea mea cu Oasap, “a global online store dedicated to high-street fashion by offering various kinds of women’s clothes and accessories”, ca sa citez. Link aici.
Astazi va arat partea a2a a colaborarii mele cu ei, in urma careia (mi-am ales) si am primit sandalele acestea cu talpa ortopedica inflorata. Imi plac foarte mult. Le-am luat pentru ca seamana foarte bine cu modelul Wisteria facut deTopshop in 2010, model care m-a obsedat si m-a bantuit multa vreme dupa ce l-au scos pe piata. Mi-am dorit mult o pereche dar n-am putut sa-mi iau in perioada aceea pentru ca s-au dat foaaaaaaarte repede si mi-au fost suflati de sub nas chiar cand m-am decis sa-i cumpar. De doua ori! Tin minte ca nici n-aveam card pe vremea aia si a trebuit sa apelez la altii ca sa reusesc cumva sa le iau. N-a fost sa fie. In orice caz, am continuat sa le vanez pe Ebay (unde le-am gasit la preturi astronomice) si am tot asteptat in speranta ca o sa gasesc ceva similar la un pret decent. Am fost super fericita sa le gasesc la Oasap! Imi place chiar mai mult varianta asta cu print floral, chiffon ivoriu si platforma masiva. Plus ca sunt foarte comode.
Purtate aici cu o fusta River Island, o bluza Zara, o curea vintage Escada, cercei vintage si un colier no name.

Toodles!

Uuuu, are you there Keanu?

EN: My today’s outfit was all about comfort as I was walking a lot, had to run a few errands and then stop by my friend’s house for a spot of lunch. We managed to take these photos right before it started pouring rain but of course we got caught in the rain without umbrellas and we had to do a little improvising with plastic bags. Which was pretty useless as we still got very wet and dirty. Not to mention that we were quite distant from our homes so had no choice but to walk in the rain on our return. Yes yes, very romantic. NOT.
As soon as I got home I got into my pj’s and my ridiculously fluffy slippers and made myself a giant mug of hot chocolate and climbed into bed with Keanu Reeves a Sweet November dvd. Then I got depressed (hate how much I like that movie, always makes me sad) and started thinking about Prince Charming again.Where the bloody hell are you?!? You’re frustrating me, mister.

RO: Tinuta postata azi e ceva foarte comfortabil si facut in graba pentru mers mult pe jos, alergatura cu treburi si vizita la o prietena la care am stat la masa. Ulterior am iesit cu ea si am reusit sa facem pozele astea la fix inainte sa inceapa ploaia. Desigur ca n-aveam umbrele la noi si desigur ca nici adapost nu prea gaseam, astfel incat am fost nevoite sa improvizam cu niste pungi de plastic. Zici ca faceam reclama la Durex. In orice caz, s-au dovedit inutile pungile alea, ploua atat de puternic ca ni se scurgeau siroaie de apa din par si inotam in sandale (observati va rog ca n-am nici 1 cm de toc, da?:))). Hainele erau imbibate consistent cu apa si aveam dificultati la mers din cauza greutatii astfel adaugate. Amandoua eram departe de casa si am mers asa prin ploaie mai bine de o ora pana am reusit sa ajungem la domiciliu. Foarte romantic. Ne iesea romantismul prin pori. Si aburii din gura.
Dupa ce-am ajuns acasa, m-am varat rapid in pijamale si niste botosi ridicol de pufosi, mi-am facut o ditai halba de ciocolata calda si m-am trantit in pat cu Keanu Reeves un dvd sa ma uit la Sweet November. Dupa care am cazut in butoiul cu melancolie (urasc cat de mult imi place filmul ala, mereu ma intristeaza) si m-au napadit gandurile la Fat Frumos. Broscoiul care nu mai apare. Unde esti, prietene?!?! Ma cam frustrezi matale.

EN: I’ve worn this skirt two days in a row and I have full intentions of wearing it again today someday. I’m going green here, people. Be proud. I bet you are applauding at your display right now.
Also, I felt very mom-like today. Minus the shoes. And the crop top. Had you told me 2 or 3 years ago that knee length pencil skirt would be something I’d wear, I probably would have laughed my ass off. Back then I was at the point where wearing a shirt or heels or anything golden seemed like the fussiest thing ever.
Gone are the days of boring, baggy, 4 sizes bigger Metallica t-shirts.
Ah, memories.

And these photos are deceiving. It may look like spring but the risks of being blown over by wind and thrown into another galaxy are particularly high.
Don’t say i didn’t warn you.

Toodles!

RO: Am purtat fusta asta 2 zile la rand si intentionez s-o port din nou astazi intr-o zi. O ard eco aici, se intelege. Fiti mandre. Pun pariu ca acum aplaudati in fata monitorului.
Danke.
M-am simtit foarte gen “mama” cand am purtat asta. De la fusta cred. Mai putin sandalele. Si topul scurt, ceva ce mama n-ar purta niciodata. Daca mi-ati fi spus acum 2 sau 3 ani ca voi ajunge vreodata in viata asta sa imbrac fuste creion pana la genunchi, m-as fi tavalit pe jos de ras. Si as fi recomandat un control psihiatric. Pe vremea aia (de fapt, aproape toata perioada liceului), mi se parea ca pana si o camasa sau pantofii cu toc sau orice auriu, erau cel mai impopotonator lucru posibil.
Duse sunt zilele tricourilor anoste, largi, cu 4 numere mai mari, cu Metallica.
Ah, ce amintiri.

Iar pozele astea sunt inselatoare. Pare a primavara insorita dar defapt, sunt riscuri mari de a fi zburat de vant si aruncat intr-o alta galaxie.
Sa nu ziceti ca nu v-am avertizat.

(Lee Cooper jeans, no name t-shirt, River Island hat, vintage Louis Vuitton bag, Stradivarius shoes and cuffs, no name necklace and earrings)

EN: Although it isn’t something I’d normally wear, all those midriffs I saw exposed on runways from Proenza Schouler to Miu Miu made me embrace (just a little) the skin-baring trend. So I decided to feature (for the last time, I promise) my Lee Cooper jeans in today’s outfit and wear them with possibly the most painful shoes ever (don’t be deceived by that insignificant heel, they are an absolute toe-killer!) and a flashy hat. Yes, I’m kind of excited to wear a leopard on my head.

RO: Desi in mod normal nu port asa ceva, toate abdomenele pe care le-am vazut expuse pe podiumuri, de la Proenza Schouler la Miu Miu, m-au facut sa-mi doresc sa experimentez putin mai mult cu acest trend. Si pentru ca am vrut sa mai fac o tinuta cu jeansii de ieri inainte de a da drumul la giveaway, aveti aici un outfit cu posibil cea mai dureroasa pereche de pantofi ever (nu va lasati inselate de tocul mic, pantofii astia sunt asasini de degete) si o palarie excentrica. Dap, sunt foarte incantata ca port un leopard turtit pe cap.

Iar acum giveawayul prin care una dintre voi va castiga o pereche ca aceasta de jeansi!


Ce aveti de facut:
1.Dati like paginii de Facebook Lee Cooper
2.Urmariti Thrill of the heel pe Google friend connect
3.Imi scrieti in cateva (sau mai multe) cuvinte cum ati purta voi jeansii acestia
4.Imi lasati adresa voastra de mail si ma anuntati daca ati indeplinit toti pasii

Castigatorul va fi ales la intamplare cu random.org si anuntat la 48 de ore de la lansarea giveawayului.

Va urez succes!

Lee Cooper jeans

EN: When it comes to jeans, I’m one of those people who are never satisfied with what they have. Too loose or too tight, too blue or too white, too long or too short, too flared or too skinny, there’s a flaw in every single pair I try on. Perhaps that’s why I own not more than 4 pairs and it’s veeeeery rarely the case that I get new jeans.
That said, I was pretty smitten with this Lee Cooper pair. Simple therefore versatile, with a straight leg fit and a low rise, this pair of jeans just became my all time favorites!
Here’s my take on it…

RO: Cand vine vorba de jeansi, sunt unul dintre oamenii vesnic nemultumiti. Sunt ba prea largi, ba prea stramti, ba prea albastrii, ba prea albi, ba prea lungi, ba prea scurti, ba prea evazati, ba prea skinny, ba prea ba prea! Fara probleme pot gasi defecte in orice pereche probez. Probabil din cauza asta am maxim 4 perechi in dulap (pe care le port foarte rar) si mi se intampla sa cumpar jeansi o data la cativa ani.
De aceea, am ramas destul de surprinsa sa gasesc ceva pe placul meu in magazinul Lee Cooper. Am optat bineinteles pentru o pereche simpla deci versatila, cu o croiala dreapta si o talie joasa, ceea ce aduce jeansii acestia pe prima pozitie in topul preferintelor mele!
Vedeti mai jos cateva variante de purtare…

(Lee Cooper jeans, Topshop shirt, Giuseppe Zanotti shoes, vintage clutch, Asos watch, Stradivarius cuff, H&M ring and vintage Ray bans)

1. For my first outfit, I decided to wear the jeans with big rolled up cuffs, masive platform sandals and an asymmetric oversized shirt in a fun print. Very comfortable and perfect for the very hot weather we’re experiencing right now…

1. Pentru prima tinuta, am ales sa suflec portiuni mari din jeansi si sa-i port cu sandale cu platforma masiva si o camasa asimetrica imprimata. Foarte comod si adecvat pentru vremea (prea) calduroasa de care avem parte in perioada asta…

(Lee Cooper jeans, Miss Selfridge blazer, no name shirt, vintage brooches, Forever 21 shoes, H&M sunnies and ring, Stradivarius cuff)

2. As you probably have noticed i’m a big fan of blazers and I like pairing them with jeans to create looks that are casual and comfortable, but still have that little something extra. And since I’m having a major brooches moment, I decided to accesorize my outfit with 3 vintage pins.

2. Stiti probabil ca sunt o mare impatimita la sacourilor si ca imi place sa le port cam cu orice, inclusiv jeansi. Am creat aici o tinuta casual si comoda, simpla dar accesorizata cu 3 brose vintage pentru acel je ne sais quoi…

(Lee Cooper jeans, H&M top, Zara sandals, no name necklace, vintage earrings, H&M and C&A bracelets)

3. For my last outfit, I played around with one of my favourite trends at the moment-Peplum! Worn with statement jewellery and a simple pair of sandals that felt like just the right finish.

3. Iar pentru ultimul outfit, m-am jucat iarasi cu “mansetele” jeansilor, de data aceasta rulate mai subtil. Am adaugat o bluza cu peplum-unul dintre trenurile mele preferate actuale, bijuterii statement si o pereche de sandale minimaliste.

So tell me. Which one is your favorite?

Care tinuta va place cel mai mult?
Fiti pe faza maine pentru ca voi da startul unui giveaway in care puteti castiga si voi aceeasi pereche de jeansi! Detalii maine.
